    I can express no kinder sign of love than this kind kiss…
    For thou hast given me in this beauteous face
    A world of earthly blessings to my soul.

    I charm you, by my once-commended beauty,
    By all your vows of love and that great vow
    Which did incorporate and make us one,
    That you unfold to me.

    No sooner met but they looked;
    No sooner looked but they loved;
    No sooner loved but they sighed;
    No sooner signed but they asked one another the reason;
    No sooner knew the reason but they sought the remedy;
    And in these degrees have they made a pair of stairs to marriage.

    My love is holy… say thou art mine, and ever
    My love as it begins shall so persever.

    Live with me, and be my love,
    And we will all the pleasures prove…
    And if these pleasures may thee move,
    Then live with me and be my love.

    It is thyself, mine own self’s better part,
    Mine eye’s clear eye, my dear heart’s dearer heart,
    My food, my fortune and my sweet hope’s aim,
    My sole earth’s heaven and my heaven’s claim.

    As you are mine, I am yours:
    I give away myself for you and dote upon the exchange.
